Her staging of Swan Lake is based on the original choreography by Petipa and Ivanov, with additional choreography by the late Sir Frederick Ashton. Evelyn Hart and Peter Schaufuss dance the main roles in this studio recording. Makarova's innovative interpretation presents the work as a story of perfect and eternal love. The main focus is on Siegfried's love for Odette, her love for him, his unfaithfulness, for which she ultimately forgives him, and her self-sacrifice in going to her death with him in order to break the power of an evil curse. The production is succinct and well paced. The stage design by Gunther Schneider-Siemssen does not use scenery to communicate changes of place and mood but back projections, which are extremely effective for creating a mysterious, magical atmosphere."

"Anthony Dowell's legendary production of Swan Lake includes designs inspired by Imperial Russia of 1895 when the ballet was first performed. Against this atmospheric setting, Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanovs choreography provides an opportunity to see great dance partnerships in the leading roles and the whole Company in the dance ensembles. Its no wonder that Swan Lake is one of the most loved of all classical ballets. It has that magical combination of Tchaikovskys music, a compelling story of tragic romance and choreography that allows the very best dancers to show just how amazing they can be. In its story, Prince Siegfried falls in love with the Swan Queen, Odette, condemned through the evil magic of magician Von Rothbart to transform into a swan by day. After trickery at a palace ball prevents the Prince marrying his new love and restoring her to her true form, tragedy is the only means left to him finally to break the spell. The ethereal forms of the swans, illuminated by moonlight, the charged solos for the Prince and Odette and her alter-ego Odile, the machinations of Von Rothbart and the colour of a palace ball all combine with glorious music, here under the expert baton of Boris Gruzin, to make for an evening of inspiration and romance."@en

As dusk falls, she is transformed into a beautiful woman. She is Odette, the Swan Queen, and the other swans are other enchanted girls. The spell will be broken if a man, pure in heart, pledges his love to her. Prince Siegfried's mentor, Von Rothbart, is responsible, for he is an evil sorcerer. At a ball, Von Rothbart disguises his daughter Odile as Odette, and the Prince is captivated, and confesses his love. Odette, spying through a window, rushes away in despair, certain that she is doomed to be a swan forever. Will Prince Siegfried betray her, or find some way to free his beloved?"@en
"Rehearsals of various sections of Rudolf Nureyev's version of Swan lake. In the first 14 min. of the tape, female dancers rehearse the swans' ensemble dance in Act IV. This rehearsal apparently focuses on floor patterns and spacing; most of the women dance on demi-pointe rather than on pointe, and much of the choreography is marked rather than danced full-out. Male dancers then rehearse an ensemble dance from Act I. After a brief glimpse of Odette and the swans in an excerpt from Act IV, a run-through of most of Acts I and II begins at ca. 33 min. into the tape. Alternate casts rehearse simultaneously in a few sections. Nureyev occasionally appears on camera, most notably to demonstrate a movement phrase in the second female variation of the Act I pas de trois. Footage from a run-through of Act IV begins at ca. 105 min. Rehearsals of the Act III mazurka and Neapolitan dance begin respectively at ca. 121 min. and ca. 130 min."
